Thanks again to all my new followers. I am still in the process of vetting followers. So, be patient as I am not overlooking you. It really helps to have a bio or having had some posts on your page. If you're in a Starter Pack that I am familiar with this also helps.
Thanks again for your patience.

Late result for anyone still awake: Na’Cole Thompson, the Democratic candidate in the mayoral race today in Leander, Texas, has won the election.
She got 57% and won’t need a runoff, with two Republicans adding up to 43%.
